Here you go at least for a translation of L'equipe's article:
From the first seconds, everybody recognizes their SD music, the catchy Shape of You, one of 2017 hit. Ice dance connoisseurs today in Villars de Lans will most probably notice something else while observing their choreography. Because for the first time the double world champions collaborated with one of the legend of ice dance whose style is so unique. Christopher Dean, the 59 years old brit, revolutionized ice dance, winning the olympic gold in 1984 with Jayne Torvill on the Bolero, still present in people's mind, and then creating the Duchesnay's choreographies in the early 90's.
So, when Didier Gailhaguet suggested to ask for his help during this olympic season, the skaters agreed "We talk as a team with Romain, Marie-France and Patrice and all thought it was a good idea, says Cizeron. He's a skater we admire and respect a lot, it could only bring something positive and a different touch."
Being their fourth season in Montreal, the French were welcoming a bit of novelty. All the more so maybe concerning the SD which often cost them precious points and whose imposed theme this season doesn't come as naturally for them.
Dean came to Canada in July to do the choreography alongside Marie-France, and then came back 2 weeks to fine tune it. "He is an extraordinary man, with the aura of a great champion but also an ability to stay open-minded towards this couple whose identity is so strong" says Marie-France appreciative. " He's very attentive to the way people move but he does push you to do things you wouldn't normally do" adds Gabriella.
During training, Dean's involvement was evident. The Brit was decomposing each movement, often substituting himself to one of the dancer in a very focused yet relaxed atmosphere. " I think they were open to ideas and to move a bit differently, says Dean. I didn't come to change them but to share my knowledge of Latin Dances, of rhumba. They have so many abilities ! Their style is more classical, here it's all about rhythm. The idea is to free them, to make them feel the most important is less precision than freedom of movement."
